Corrosion Under Insulation Testing and Simulation of Insulated Piping
Corrosion under insulation (CUI) is, as the name suggests, external corrosion of piping and vessels manufactured from carbon manganese, low alloy, and austenitic stainless steel that occurs underneath externally clad or jacketed thermal or acoustic insulation fundamentally because of the entrance of...
